Chapter 38

Episode 38Difference in case (4)

Yeon Ho-jeong and his party were able to arrive at the family home in twenty days.

Surprisingly, their appearance was speechless. This was because the way back to the family was replaced by spiritual training and physical training.

Of course, it was Yeonho-jeong who led that ridiculous move. Shinmo took over the role of instructor.

The group that arrived at the family home was on the verge of collapse.

But they could not rest. Yeon Ho-jeong and Yeon Ji-pyeong were called to the family office, and Chang-eungdae started training as soon as they returned to their unit because it was training time.

Originally, all schedules were scheduled to be canceled on the day of returning from an extra mission, but Shinmo did not allow it. He already tried to increase the intensity of his training, but he didn’t hesitate to whip him, saying it was a good thing.

Chang Eung-jo, who had been to Hapbi that day, had to experience hell.

* * *

Yeonwi widened her eyes as she saw the brothers entering the family home.

Huh.

Even though it was chilly, I could smell the sweat.

It wasn’t a sweaty smell, but the vivid smell of sweat that had just been shed. Moreover, looking at the clothes, it looked like they hadn’t been like that for a day or two.

“I’m home.”

“I’m back, father.”

Yeonwi was unable to speak for a moment.

I was momentarily speechless due to my sons’ teasing. Is this how it feels to treat a child who returns alive from the battlefield?

After a while, Yeonwi opened her mouth.

“Arise nation.”

Two people stood up.

Yeonwi’s eyes sparkled.

Yeon Ho-jeong’s face was calm. On the other hand, Yeon Ji-pyeong’s face became thin. Originally, he didn’t have any flab, but anyone could see that he had worked hard.

“I will hear the details from your brother, so Pyeong-i, please go in and get some rest.”

“Oh, thank you.”

Thank you. Considering Yeon Ji-pyeong’s usual personality, it was a reaction that would make you laugh out loud.

When Yeon Ji-pyeong left, only the two father and son remained in Gaju-sil.

“Sit down.”

“yes.”

Yeon Ho-jeong sat down.

The rich man said nothing. Until Commander Tae-kyung gets in the car.

“Lock your throat.”

“yes.”

Yeon Ho-jeong picked up the teacup.

Yeonwi’s eyes lit up. I saw that Yeon Ho-jeong’s hands were slightly shaking as he held the tea cup.

Yeon Ho-jeong, who quenched her thirst with tea several times, finally looked like she was going to survive.

Yeonwi asked.

“What is that?”

“I did some training while I was here.”

“training? which?”

Yeon Ho-jeong calmly told me about the training he had done on the way home.

Yeonwi’s eyes wavered.

“Are you saying you went through such harsh training like Pyeong-i?”

“no.”

“if?”

“Daeju Shin and Eungjo Chang all worked together.”

“…You took the initiative?”

“That’s right.”

Such a toxic guy.

Yeonwi almost said that without even realizing it. The content of the training was so shocking that the Emperor of the World reacted that way unconsciously.

Training was simple. It was just running.

The problem was how to run.

Jumping at a certain speed was not difficult as long as you had a reasonable amount of stamina. It’s just a matter of how long you run, but running itself isn’t difficult.

However, running while changing speed for each half is a different problem.

Run at full speed for half an angle, then run slowly again after half an angle. Then, after half an angle, it sprints again, and after half an angle again, it slows down.

The first day of training was like that. It is said that as each day passed, the sprint time was increased by half an hour.

That’s what he did all the way home. They even came back on a mountain path instead of a flat road.

‘Ten of those days without any training?!’

Even though I rested during meals and slept for more than four hours a day, wasn’t the training too harsh?

Fortunately, their bodies had been trained since childhood and they had learned internal skills, but it was a training that could have been dangerous if just anyone tried to follow it.

“I made sure to rest and replenish nutrition.”

“Muscles are muscles, but joints may be injured.”

“I didn’t see it as an inability to contemplate my physical condition.”

“Excessive training can even cause internal injuries.”

“So we left time for transportation.”

Even poison cannot be this poisonous. In fact, Yeonwi had done such training before, but it had never lasted for twenty days.

‘Still…’

Yeonwi read the prayer flowing from Yeonhojeong’s body.

The energy that was previously perfectly stored flows out freely. It meant that his physical strength and endurance had reached their limit.

‘This much in 20 days. ‘You’ve gained so much.’

Yeonwi was only surprised by the excessive amount of training, but believed his son’s words.

It had to be that way. This was because the son himself was proving that it was proper training.

The quality of my energy has become much clearer and grander than when I left home. Compared to before, it was an unbelievable change in the person’s energy.

Simple truth can never lead to this. The rigorous physical training even changed the nature of the energy in the body.

‘Qi (氣) continuously creates the body. After being overworked to the point of collapse, the change was promoted through massive intake of nutrients, rest, and true energy.’

Yeonwi nodded.

“No matter what, it was a lot of hard work.”

“no. “It’s just the beginning.”

“…hmm?”

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.

There was fatigue that couldn’t be hidden, but it was a face that felt even more rewarding.

“This kind of training will continue until you feel the limits of your mind, body, and energy. Of course, you need to rest well.”

“You have a strong mind.”

“Even if you risk your life to train, you never know when you will reach the ultimate goal. “It’s still a long way away.”

“…okay?”

Yeonwi nodded.

“I see.”

for the first time.

Only now was Yeonwi able to selflessly accept her son’s change.

Before leaving for Hefei, the change in my son gave me a strong sense of discomfort. I was worried because I felt like I had suddenly become a different person.

But as of today.

Now that Yeonwi had seen that deep smile and clear eyes, she was able to accept her son’s change as it was.

‘Maybe my stubbornness meant that I didn’t want to acknowledge the change in my firstborn.’

My son has become an adult.

It’s not that I’m an adult, but my eyes and mind on the world have become more adult.

Yeonwi buried her back in the chair.

“How was the meeting?” seaʀᴄh thё NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes lit up.

‘I found out something big, Dad.’

There was a lot I wanted to say. But he was silent. I didn’t think it was time to tell my father yet.

“It was just like that.”

“Have you met many people?”

“Not very deeply.”

From what I heard, it seemed like there were a few people who were attracted to him.

Yeonwi took out a neatly folded letter from her bosom and handed it to him.

“What is this?”

“Read it.”

Yeon Ho-jeong opened the letter.

After a while, he spoke in a shaky voice.

“Hmm… I don’t think it’s such a big deal.”

“The country will also send a letter like this. “That is the heart of parents.”

“When did you arrive?”

“It came this morning.”

Yeon Ho-jeong cleared his throat.

“That girl is very soft-spoken, too.”

The letter came from the head of the Zhuge family. The head of the family personally said thank you.

Considering the time when the letter arrived, it appears that the fact was probably announced before the meeting.

Yeonwi nodded.

“Good job.”

“no. “What about something like this?”

Although she didn’t show it, Yeonwi was proud of her son.

Even though he saved someone’s life, he doesn’t brag about it, but rather considers it natural.

Although it was much rougher than before, it seemed like people were becoming more aware of their duties. Yeonwi was very pleased with this change in her son.

So I asked directly.

“I heard that he was very involved with the Namgung family.”

Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.

I knew this story would come up.

“That’s right.”

“I want to hear the details of the situation.”

Yeon Ho-jeong explained in detail what happened during the meeting.

Of course, he did not reveal anything related to Myeong Ho-rim. Even without that story, it was enough to inform you of the situation.

“I see.”

Yeonwi knew that Yeonhojeong explained things as objectively as possible.

“The Prince of Namgung… said that.”

“yes.”

Yeonwi’s eyes sank coldly.

Yeon Ho-jeong, seeing those eyes, flinched without knowing.

Goosebumps rose from my back. It was my first time seeing my father’s cold eyes like that.

“It really isn’t easy. “To think it was just a case of bad relations, they went too far on that side.”

“I had no intention of getting involved, but I think joining hands with the eldest son of the Tang family was a bit harsh.”

“Of course it’s serious. “I heard you were over the age limit, so how could you have learned such a wicked trick?”

Yeon Ho-jeong inwardly tilted his head.

Is it because it’s been a while since I last saw you? Somehow, my father seemed to express his emotions more honestly than before.

“Good job.”

“yes?”

Yeonwi’s eyes were clear as she looked at Yeonhojeong. The characteristic sternness was still there, but it felt like a layer of solid ice had fallen off.

“Sometimes a rumor can be more lethal than a sword. “You handled it wisely and well, rather than getting excited and causing a scene.”

“Oh yeah.”

My father won’t know. I killed half of the Tang family’s eldest son and his subordinates.

This was because Han Ho-myeong thoroughly hid it. If that becomes known, it will really explode.

“But it seems like they were well aware of the horror of the rumors.”

“What do you mean?”

“The King of Namgung apologized to his family.”

Yeon Ho-jeong frowned.

“You apologized?”

“Yes. “The head of the family apologized directly.”

“That can’t be possible…”

“My daughter also confessed to what she did.”

At that moment, Yeon Ho-jeong let out an exclamation.

“Like this kind of snorkel.”

Yeonwi’s eyes lit up.

“Do you see how things are going?”

“Didn’t you abandon your daughter to save your son’s face? “I treated what my son did as a personal matter that had nothing to do with the Namgung family.”

Yeonwi burst out in admiration.

After hearing just a few words, I immediately inferred the situation of the combination.

This isn’t something you can do just because you’re smart. This was only possible if you knew how to read the flow of the world.

“Yes.”

“I thought I was going to keep it a secret until the end, but I ended up losing face and sealing the case. “Isn’t the Namgoong family’s behavior not normal?”

Yeonwi nodded.

Now I had no choice but to admit it. My son’s growth and my son’s perspective.

“So what do you think?”

“What do you mean?”

“There has been no response to the Namgung family’s apology yet. “How do you think I should deal with it?”

Yeon Ho-jeong shook his head.

“Is there anything to worry about? “It may be a bit obnoxious, but it’s a waste of time to worry about such headaches.”

“Let’s accept this apple?”

“It would be better if I could shake up the head of the Nangung family. I said it was done out of Gongja Lee’s personal grudge, but what can I do? Besides, you said it was because of your younger brother’s business.”

“Aren’t you angry?”

Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.

“Would you like to live in a river and have your life threatened once or twice? “It would be more beneficial to receive an apology here and improve Yeonga’s reputation.”

It was a reasonable decision.

Yeon Ho-jeong had no intention of paying any more attention to Namgung Se. It was because there was a mountain of work to be done in the future.

However, Yeonwi, who did not know Yeonhojeong’s true intentions, felt sorry and proud at the same time at the conclusion her son reached.

Forgiving the person who tried to kill you? It was not an easy task for a young man under 20.

However, not only do I forgive that, but I am also thinking about the future of my family. It was amazing and I also felt sorry.

“Okay. Let’s do as you say.”

“Yes, I understand.”

Yeon Ho-jeong stood up.

“If you do that, can I just go back and wash up?”

“okay.”

Yeon Ho-jeong bowed his head and turned around.

Yeonwi unknowingly called out to her son who was about to open the door and leave.

“Hojeong.”

“yes?”

Yeonwi was silent for a moment.

By the time Yeon Ho-jeong’s head reached his shoulder in puzzlement.

“Good job.”

Yeon Ho-jeong grinned.

“What.”
